Watching: Moussake

Overview

Portrait of a silent old man, with a life full of drama. Moussake comes from the remote Tuamotu archipelago in French Polynesia. He makes a living from picking Tahitian tiaras and performing musical events at the Papeete market. The film follows him along the congested roads of the Tahitian capital, then into the cabin where he makes flower crowns and receives visits from his children.
